AMENDMENTS TO BASE INDENTURE PROVISIONS


 


SECTION 2.1.  Generally.
The Base Indenture is hereby amended or amended and restated, in each case solely with respect to the Notes, as indicated in the
following sections.

Definitions. Section 1.1 of the Base Indenture is hereby amended by adding the following definitions in correct alphabetical
order:


 


“Additional

“Applicable
Procedures” means, with respect to any transfer or transaction involving a Global Security or beneficial interest therein,

“Attributable
Debt” means the present value of the rental payments during the remaining term of the lease included in the Sale and
Leaseback Transaction. To determine that present value, the Company uses a discount rate equal to the lease rate of the Sale and
Leaseback Transaction or, if the lease rate is not known to the Company, the weighted average interest rate of all series of securities
outstanding at the time under the indenture compounded semi-annually. For these purposes, rental payments do not include any amounts
required to be paid for taxes, maintenance, repairs, insurance, assessments, utilities, operating and labor costs and other items
that do not constitute payments for property rights. In the case of any lease that the lessee may terminate by paying a penalty,
if the net amount (including payment of the penalty) would be reduced if the lessee terminated the lease on the first date that
it could be terminated, then this lower net amount will be used.

at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of
the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (exclusive of interest accrued to the redemption
date) on the Notes to be redeemed (assuming that such Notes matured on the Par Call Date), discounted to the redemption date on
a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Rate, plus 20 basis
points, plus, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption
date.


 


(b)       If
the redemption date is after a record date and on or prior to a corresponding interest payment date, the interest will be paid
on the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest on the redemption date to the Holder of record on the record date.


 


(c)       On
or after the Par Call Date, the Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option and at any time or
from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid
interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

Company is entitled to redeem the Notes, at its option, at any time as a whole but not in part, upon not less than 15 nor more
than 60 days’ prior notice, with a copy to the Trustee, to the registered address of each Holder (such notice to be provided
not more than 90 days before the next date on which the Company would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts), at a redemption
price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption
date (subject to the right of Holders of Notes of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment
that is on or prior to the redemption date), in the event the Company becomes, or will become, obligated to pay, on the next date
on which any amount may be payable with respect to the Notes, any Additional Amounts as a result of (i) a change in, or amendment
to, the laws or regulations of any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or (ii) a change in any official position or the introduction of
an official position regarding the application or interpretation thereof (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction),
which is publicly announced and becomes effective on or after the issue date of the Notes and such Additional Amounts cannot (as certified
in an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee) be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to the Company. Notice
of the Company’s intent to redeem the Notes pursuant to this Section 3.7(d) shall not be effective until such time as it
delivers to the Trustee an (1) Officer’s Certificate stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting
forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to such right of redemption have occurred and (2) opinion of independent
legal counsel stating that the Company is or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts because of an amendment to or change
in law or regulation or position as set forth in this Section 3.7(d).

for so long as any such other Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall be so secured; provided, that
nothing in this Section 4.6 shall prevent, restrict or apply to Indebtedness secured by:

or at the time such entity becomes a Restricted Subsidiary;

(xv)     any
extension, renewal or refunding (or successive extensions, renewals or refundings) in whole or in part of any Indebtedness secured

Notwithstanding the

hereto and to take such action, if any, as it may deem advisable to enable it to enforce effectively the rights of the Holders
of the Notes so secured, equally and ratably with or prior to such other obligations or Indebtedness.”


 


SECTION 2.11.  Limitations
on Sale and Leaseback Transactions. A new Section 4.7 shall be added after the newly added Section 4.6 of the Base Indenture,
which shall read as follows:


 


“Section 4.7
Limitations on Sale and Leaseback Transactions.


 


The Company will not,
and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement with any person providing for the leasing to the Company
or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Principal Property owned or hereafter acquired by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary
(except for temporary leases for a term of not more than three years and except for leases between the Company and a Restricted
Subsidiary or between Restricted Subsidiaries), which Principal Property has been or is to be sold or transferred by the Company
or such Restricted Subsidiary to such person (herein referred to as a “Sale and Leaseback Transaction”) unless:


 


(a)       the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary would be permitted pursuant to Section 4.6 to incur Indebtedness secured by a Security Interest
on the Principal Property to be leased, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Attributable Debt associated with such Sale
and Leaseback Transaction, without equally and ratably securing the Notes;


 




    	 	12	 



     


    

 


(b)       within
180 days after the effective date of the Sale and Leaseback Transaction, the Company applies an amount equal to the fair value
(as determined by the Board of Directors) of such Principal Property to be leased to the redemption or retirement of the Notes
and/or any other Securities issued under the Indenture or to the payment or other retirement of other Indebtedness of the Company
that ranks senior to or pari passu with the Notes or of Indebtedness incurred by any Restricted Subsidiary (other than, in either
case, Indebtedness owned by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary); or


 


(c)       within
180 days after entering into the Sale and Leaseback Transaction, the Company enters into a bona fide commitment or commitments
to expend for the acquisition or capital improvement of a Principal Property an amount at least equal to the fair value (as determined
by the Board of Directors) of such Principal Property to be leased.


 


Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company may, and may permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, effect any Sale and Leaseback Transaction that is not
allowable under clauses (a) through (c) of this Section 4.7 if, at the time of such Sale and Leaseback Transaction, the Attributable
Debt associated with such Sale and Leaseback Transaction, together with the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Indebtedness
secured by Security Interests upon Principal Property pursuant to the last sentence of Section 4.6(a), does not exceed 15% of Consolidated
Tangible Assets. The calculation of such aggregate principal amount of outstanding Indebtedness secured by Security Interests upon
Principal Property shall exclude (i) the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, accrued and unpaid interest, premiums
and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with any refinancing and (ii) any Attributable Debt in connection with which
the Company has purchased property, retired or defeased Indebtedness as described in Section 4.7(b).”


 


SECTION 2.12.  Withholding
Taxes and Other Taxes. A new Section 4.8 shall be added after the newly added Section 4.7 of the Base Indenture, which shall
read as follows:


 


“Section 4.8   Withholding
Taxes and Other Taxes.


 


(a)       All
payments made by or on behalf of the Company under or with respect to the Notes will be made without withholding or deduction for,
or on account of, any present or future tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge (including penalties, interest and other
liabilities related thereto) (“Taxes”) imposed or levied by or on behalf of (1) the government of Canada or
any province or territory of Canada, (2) any other jurisdiction in which the Company is organized or otherwise is resident for
tax purposes or (3) any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made, in each case including any political subdivision or
any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax (each, a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless
required by law or the interpretation or administration thereof. If the Company is obligated to withhold or deduct any amount on
account of Taxes imposed by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction from any payment made under or with respect to the Notes, the Company
shall:




    	 	13	 



     


    

 


(i)       make
such withholding or deduction;


 


(ii)       remit
the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant government authority in accordance with the applicable law;


 


(iii)       subject
to the limitations in Section 4.8(b), pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as additional interest
as may be necessary so that the net amounts received by each Holder, after such withholding or deduction (including any such withholding
or deduction on such Additional Amounts) will not be less than the amount such Holder would have received if such Taxes had not
been withheld or deducted;


 


(iv)       furnish
to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders and beneficial owners of Notes, within 60 days after the date of the payment or remittance
of any Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of an official receipt of the relevant government authorities
for all amounts deducted or withheld pursuant to applicable law, or if such receipts are not reasonably obtainable, other documentation
evidencing the payment by the Company of those Taxes; and


 


(v)       at
least 15 days prior to each date on which any Additional Amounts are payable, deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate
setting forth the calculation of the Additional Amounts to be paid and such other information as the Trustee may request to enable
the Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders of Notes on the payment date.


 


(b)       Notwithstanding
the foregoing Section 4.8(a), no Additional Amounts will be paid with respect to or in respect of a payment made to or in respect
of any Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes (an “Excluded Holder”):


 


(i)         with
which the Company does not deal at arm’s length (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) at the time of
making such payment;


 


(ii)       for
or on account of Canadian withholding Taxes imposed on a payment under or with respect to a Note that is deemed under subsection
214(16) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) to be a dividend;


 


(iii)       for
or on account of any Taxes that are imposed or withheld as a result of the presentation of any Note for payment (where presentation
is required) by or on behalf of a Holder or beneficial owner who would have been able to avoid such Taxes by presenting the relevant
Note to another Paying Agent;


 


(iv)      which
is subject to such Taxes by reason of the Holder or the beneficial owner of the Notes (or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, partner
of, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, the relevant Holder or beneficial owner, if the relevant Holder or
beneficial owner is an estate, trust, nominee, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) being a resident, domiciliary
or national of, incorporated in, or engaged in business or maintaining a permanent establishment or other physical presence in
or otherwise having some present or former connection with the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction otherwise than solely by the mere acquisition,
holding or disposition of the Notes or the receipt of payments or enforcement of rights thereunder;




    	 	14	 



     


    

 


(v)       for
or on account of any Taxes imposed or deducted or withheld by reason of the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes
to complete, execute and deliver to the Company, any reasonable form or document concerning such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s
nationality, citizenship, residence, identity or connection with the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, provided (1) such form or document
is required by law (including any applicable tax treaty) or by reason of the interpretation or administration of such law in order
to enable the Company to make payments on the Notes without deduction or withholding for Taxes, or with deduction or withholding
of a lesser amount and (2) the Company has provided a timely written request to the Holder for such form or document;


 


(vi)       for
or on account of any Taxes imposed or withheld as a result of the presentation of any Note for payment (where presentation is required)
more than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the Holder or beneficial owner (except to the
extent that the Holder or beneficial owner would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Note been presented on the last
day of such 30-day period);


 


(vii)     for
or on account of any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, excise, personal property or similar Tax;


 


(viii)     for
or on account of any Tax that is payable otherwise than by withholding from payments under or with respect to the Notes (other
than taxes payable pursuant to Regulation 803 of the Income Tax Act (Canada), or any similar successor provision or equivalent
provision of any provincial or territorial law);


 


(ix)       if
the Holder is a fiduciary, partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of that payment, to the extent that such
payment would be required to be included in income under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction for tax purposes, of a beneficiary
or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a member of that partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to
such Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the Holder of the Notes;


 


(x)       for
or on account of any Tax imposed pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (including any amended or successor version),
any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices
adopted pursuant to an intergovernmental agreement, treaty or convention between a non-U.S. jurisdiction and the United States
with respect to the foregoing or any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code;


 


(xi)       any
Taxes imposed by the United States or any political subdivision thereof; or


 


(xii)     any
combination of the exceptions listed in clauses (i) through (xi) immediately above.




    	 	15	 



     


    

 


(c)       Any
reference in this Indenture to the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, purchase price, redemption price or any other
amount payable under or with respect to any Note will be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that,
in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. The Company’s obligation to make payments
of Additional Amounts will survive any termination of this Indenture or the defeasance of any rights hereunder.


 


(d)       The
Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Holder and beneficial owner of Notes (other than an Excluded Holder), and upon written
request therefor, shall reimburse each such Holder and beneficial owner (without duplication), for the full amount of (x) any Taxes
imposed by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction and paid by such Holder or beneficial owner as a result of payments made under or with
respect to the Notes and (y) any Taxes levied or imposed and paid by such Holder or beneficial owner with respect to any reimbursement
under (x) above, but excluding any such Taxes on or computed by reference to such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s net
income, revenue, profits or capital.


 


(e)       The
Company shall pay any present or future stamp, issue, registration, court or documentary taxes or any other excise, property or
similar Taxes that arise in any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction from the execution, delivery, issuance, registration or enforcement
of the Notes, this Indenture or any other document or instrument in relation thereto, and the Company shall indemnify the Holders
and beneficial owners of the Notes for any such amounts (including penalties, interest and other liabilities related thereto) paid
by such Holders and beneficial owners.


 


(f)       Each
Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes shall cooperate with the Company and the Trustee to provide any information or documentation
reasonably requested by the Company or the Trustee in connection with the foregoing and to assist the Company or the Trustee in
determining the applicable withholding tax rate and the amount of Additional Amounts or indemnity payments payable in respect thereof
(though the foregoing shall impose no obligation on the Trustee other than pursuant to applicable laws or regulations).”

person”) if such transaction or series of transactions, in the aggregate, would result in a conveyance, transfer or lease
of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis
to any successor person, unless:


 


(a)       the
Company is the surviving corporation or the successor person (if other than the Company) is a corporation organized and validly

“Indenture”) dated as of November 16, 2018, between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (herein

This Security is subject
to optional redemption and a special tax redemption, and may be the subject of an offer to purchase, as further described in the
Indenture. The Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Securities.
In the event of redemption of this Security in accordance with the Indenture in part only, a new Security or Securities in principal
amount equal to the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.


 


Upon the occurrence
of a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to the Securities, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the
Securities pursuant to Article III of the Indenture, each Holder of the Securities shall have the right to require the Company
to purchase all or a portion (such that (i) any such portion to be repurchased must be an integral multiple of $1,000 and (ii)
the principal amount of any Note remaining after such repurchase must equal $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess

require the consent of all of the Holders) as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations
of the Company and the rights of the Holders under the Indenture and the Securities at any time by the Company and the Trustee
with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding
that are affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Securities (100% of the Holders in certain circumstances) at the time Outstanding that are affected, to waive compliance
by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and the Securities and certain past Defaults and Events of Default under
the Indenture and the Securities and their consequences. Any such consent, amendment or waiver by or on behalf of the Holder of
this Security, once effective, shall be conclusive and binding upon every Holder affected by such amendment or waiver, with certain
exceptions. and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or
in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

No reference herein
to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company or any
other obligor on the Securities (in the event such other obligor is obligated to make payments in respect of the Securities), which
is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on, this Security at the times,
place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed without the consent of the Holder of this Security.


 


As provided in the
Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the register that
the Registrar shall keep with respect to the Securities and to their transfer and exchange, upon surrender of this Security for
registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company at the Corporate Trust Office, and thereupon one or more new Securities,
of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.


 


Except as indicated
in the Indenture, no service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.


 


A director, officer,
employee or stockholder (past or present), as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company
under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation.
By accepting a Security, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration
for the issue of the Securities.


 


Prior to due presentment
of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the
person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security is overdue,
and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


 


The Company, the Trustee
and any Agent shall treat a person as the Holder of such principal amount of outstanding Notes represented by a Global Security
as shall be specified in a written statement of the Depositary or by the applicable procedures of such Depositary with respect
to such Global Security, for purposes of obtaining any consents, declarations, waivers or directions required to be given by the
Holders pursuant to the Indenture.
